Social Work strategies at the hospital of Bonsucesso/RJ, in the context of the Covid-19 pandemic

Abstract

In this article, we aim to analyze the work strategies constructed by the Social Service of the Hospital Federal de Bonsucesso, in Rio de Janeiro, during the course of the Covid-19 pandemic (2020 – 2021). Therefore, methodologically, the research, of a qualitative nature, resorted to bibliographical and documental study, the latter being, through reports and documents of public access available on the website of the Court of Auditors of the Union and documents of restricted access, produced by the HFB Social Service team. For the work with restricted access documents, the proposal was submitted to Plataforma Brasil, receiving a favorable opinion from the Research Ethics Committee linked to the HFB. In general, the conclusions indicate that the work strategies adopted by the HFB Social Service were forged in the field of the dimensions of professional competence: theoretical-methodological, ethical-political and technical-operative, confirming the initial assumptions of the research.
